Brian Maier Posted July 23, 2007 Report Share Posted July 23, 2007 Depending on how they want to use it this could be a good thing...or atleast better than AT&T getting it. http://www.webpronews.com/topnews/2007/07/23/google-fear-hits-at-t-square-in-the-jaw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philip Perkins Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 I think they will be blowing my block 28 (and maybe block 27 as well) radios off the air in any case. Philip Perkins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
studiomprd Posted July 25, 2007 Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 here's some info on what may happen to this portion of the spectrum: http://www.broadcastnewsroom.com/articles/viewarticle.jsp?id=165336 FCC Chairman Kevin Martin said the FCC would release within a week the results of tests of several remote-sensing unlicensed devices that would potentially be allowed to operate in the so-called "white spaces" between DTV channels. The FCC has already said it plans to allow fixed devices in the band subject to testing and other safeguards to make sure the devices do not cause interference to TV reception. It has not yet decided to allow the remote-sensing unlicensed devices. (more) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

studiomprd Posted August 3, 2007 Report Share Posted August 3, 2007 the results are in: "A report released Tuesday from the commission's Office of Engineering & Technology finds that tests of submitted prototype devices envisioned for use in unoccupied slices of TV spectrum failed to perform as hoped." http://broadcastengineering.com/RF/fcc-oet-white-space-devices-0802/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
